Life is still pretty busy, not getting much time for Lemmy, but at least got some time to read now.

Still reading Streams of Silver by R. A. Salvatore. Book 2 of the series. Am more than halfway through now, if nothing comes up, should be able to finish it this week.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Haven't responded to one of these for a while.

I finished the infinite series of books. There was Kaos and The Order which were pretty decent. In these two multiple books from the series are drawn together to bring all the characters in one place. Each of the books uniting different characters setting up for the final book.

Singularity, the culmination of all the books so far. It was OK, it was bearable but honestly it is probably the worst book in the series and a very Luke warm end to what has been a decent set of books. I think the thing I disliked most is Jeremy Robinson did a Stephen King in Dark Tower and wrote himself as the author into the last book. As soon as I realise he was gonna start appear my opinion went downhill fast. The book constantly tries to break the fourth wall and it was just a disappoint end tbh.

Meanwhile I'm up to 71 of the deathlands books and they are still great xD

Wow, Deathlands still going strong!

That's sad to hear about the last book of Infinite series, but even with that, will you recommend the series?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yeh, I'm closing in on the half way point of the Deathlands books at this point xD

I think I would definitely still recommend the Infinite Timeline, the end wasn't bad by any stretch of the imagination but I did find it disappointing compared to the rest of the series if I'm being honest. I would still recommend people look into it though if it interests you!

Wow, half point at 71 😀

Okay, will keep it in my wishlist then.
